In this informative video, PaddleTV emphasizes the importance of properly fitting a lifejacket for children before going paddling. They stress the need for a Coast Guard approved lifejacket that is the appropriate size for your child. It is crucial to choose the right size, rather than buying one they can grow into. The lifejacket should fit snugly but comfortably, and for children under 50 pounds, it is recommended to use a lifejacket with a crotch strap to prevent it from riding up, as well as a collar for added flotation to keep the child's head above water while swimming.
